The Littlest Gryffindor

A Young Boy sat on the doorstep of Number 4 , Privet Drive. He was a small boy, and looked much younger than he was. He was thin , and quite short. The summer was unusually hot , and the family who took care of him , the Dursleys , had set him outside in the sweltering heat.

Just then another boy came out. As it happened the boy had two popsicles. He was fat , but considerably tall. The smaller boy raised his head , black hair falling into bright green eyes which peered from glasses. " Can I please have one , Dudley? " he asked politely.

" No way , Harry! " Dudley Rudely replied to the boy , before walking off. The boy , no , Harry , began to think. IF I had parents , would they give ME two popsicles? What were they like? Were they nice people?

Suddenly , the porch seemed to spin. It span and span and span and span and span. Harry shut his eyes. The spinning was enough to make any six year old sick. When the spinning seemed to stop , he opened his eyes.

He didn't see Mrs. Figg's House across the street , like he had thought he would , but a long stone hallway. Also , a girl. The girl had long red hair and surprisingly green eyes " Oh , Hello! My name is Lily. " she said.

About 10 minutes later , they were in Professor Dumbledore's office. " Ms. Evans , I believe you have a Charms lesson? " he said. Lily turned and walked out of the room without another word. Dumbledore then turned to Harry.

After a considerable amount of questions , from both Harry and Dumbledore , The Professor reached a decision. " Harry , You can sleep in a dormitory with James Potter and his friends , Sirius Black , Peter Pettigrew , and Remus Lupin." Dumbledore stated , as though that were fact , and not a sleeping arrangement.

Harry stayed in Dumbledore's office until Lily's last lesson of the day ( charms ) was done. Mostly he talked to the portraits , although to Dumbledore it appeared he avoided Phineas' painting like the plague.

Lily came , just before dinner , and collected Harry , shepherding him through he deserted halls into the very full Great Hall where everyone was. Harry sat quietly with Dumbledore at the Head Table , amongst the teachers. The students , it seemed , didn't notice him.

At the very End of the meal , Harry walked back to the Common Room with Lily. He sat in front of the fire. Just then , James walked up , and as he was about to ask Lily out , she turned around. Seeing who it was , she stated " Oh good , I was about to start looking for you." James grinned to himself , but then she continued " Professor Dumbledore says that Harry is supposed to sleep in your dormitory with you. " James' face fell , clearly this what not what he had been hoping for. Though he still said " Who's Harry? "

Harry's head appeared of the top of the armchair , he was now standing up. " I am! " he chirped happily , and James groaned. Oh this was SO not his day.

By the way for all of you who read my stories this one was written by my little cousin. This is her note to you:

Sorry if this one is a little short, I'll try to make them a little longer from now on.
